I well remember a work colleague telling me to get a second opinion - because you don't look like you have MS. Big sigh.<br />I am so happy that you have found a way to persevere with your crafts and your gardening - and suspect your students forgot your disabilities very quickly.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7516733121956849207.post-56910274429806879732021-11-08T04:21:41.036+11:002021-11-08T04:21:41.036+11:00Margaret Birding For Pleasure: Thank you.Margaret Birding For Pleasure: Thank you.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7516733121956849207.post-41151512340374608272021-11-08T02:59:08.074+11:002021-11-08T02:59:08.074+11:00I read this with great interest.

As someone born with a birth defect which is similar to arthritis, since I was a child, my fingers have been rather deformed. Not bad if we are just talking, but the minute I start waving my hands around, it's fairly obvious. It was hard being a teacher (actually, it was called teaching assistant, but the class was all mine) when I was in grad school. I made it clear up front that the students would soon notice I had deformed hands. What they didn't see or notice were the deformed knees, ankles, elbows, etc. Thank you for your incredibly thoughtful questions, EC.
